Hillary Clinton's "hardworking Americans" comment seemed to exclude blacks. Donna Brazile's "new" Democratic vision marginalized working-class whites and Latinos. How does the party unite?
  • Hypocrisy

    Let's just call it what it is: hypocrisy.

    I don't know which is worse; the blacks who engage in wholesale racism and hatred against all else, or the white "liberals" that condone their doing so.

    For instance Dems couldhave won this November instead of nominating a candidate who on his best day will pull in 7 states: if not less. But both blacks and "liberal" whites wanted no part of it. And the vitriol, slurs and fabrications they spewed throughout the primary were the ugliest I'd ever seen in my life. Bar none.

    I do believe the difference between blacks and all other racial communities the nation has and continue to develop is a desire to succeed.

    For whatever reason blacks are stuck in a mentality of perpetual victimhood. They'd rather lose with Obama than win with Hillary or someone else and then of course be furious not with themselves or the right: but with Democrats a little to the center of them. Liberals of the left have the same mentality.

    The right knew it and that's why they paved the way and made it so easy for Obama: up to now that is. Now obviously his usefulness is over.

    So my feeling is if it's not too late, and it probably is, is that Dems should regroup and leave the Al Sharpton's and Donna Brazilles behind along with the equally martyr-embracing lefties.(how anyone intelligent can even take that horrible woman seriously when she so stunningly ran Gore's campaign into the ground is beyond me)

    The rest of us are actually sick and tired of losing elections and watching our kids and grandkids and parents suffer for it.

    IOW, it's not about race. It's about stupidity.
